    1. Is it too late to start on Medium on 2024?
    2. Do I have the rights to the content that I post?(Can I compile my articles into a book,much later?)
    I'll be looking forward to your feedback.
    So much love from a sunny Nairobi,Kenya🇰🇪❤️

    Hi Zulie, question about pubs. Can I share my story in my own publication, and then also submit it to another publication for it to be shared? Or, is it just one publication per story... Thank you. So happy I came across your channel. Learning so much!

    • @ZulieWrites
      @ZulieWrites  4 года назад +1

      One pub per story! Medium has a pretty strict no-duplicate-content rule, so best to stick to one publication per story :)

    Thanks, Zulie! I see some straightforward info here. My question: Is there a Medium publication devoted specifically to writing craft? I have an ebook manuscript that I'd like to publish piece-by-piece. Could Medium be a likely venue?

    • @ZulieWrites
      @ZulieWrites  Год назад

      Medium could be a great place to publish your pieces! To find publication, I'd recommend going to the "explore topics" page (medium.com/explore-topics), choosing a topic, and browsing through the stories' publications. I also described the process in this video: ruclips.net/video/WDbJ8cxZ41Q/видео.html

    @iamtheyorkiemom 4 года назад +1

    How does Medium view/treat posts that begin with private label articles WHEN it's highly customized with additional well researched material, personal perspective, relevant quotes, video clips, etc, etc?
    I'm asking because IF someone else uses it, no matter how much customization there is, one might appear to be plagiarism.
    These are to be a going in position for a content marketing component of a larger site that will eventually be crowd-sourced. Just so it's not a bunch of crickets when the doors open! It's holistic living oriented material, not personal essays, etc.
    Thank you!

    Are topics still relevant to Medium's switch to encouraging a more relationship based approach?

    • @ZulieWrites
      @ZulieWrites  2 года назад

      Great question Gary. Medium's migrated away from the Topic pages, but I recommend doing research on Tag pages instead (medium.com/tag/[tag name]) and targeting publications that show up frequently in that tag page. That way you can be sure to reach readers who are interested in that tag.

    what is the difference between views and reads.

    • @ZulieWrites
      @ZulieWrites  8 месяцев назад

      You earn a view when someone clicks on your article, whereas a read counts as someone staying on the article for longer than 30 seconds.

    Zulie can I be successful on medium without publication?

    • @ZulieWrites
      @ZulieWrites  Год назад

      Yes, you can! Right now, success on Medium (in terms of views and money) vastly depends on getting boosted, which is less likely but still possible without a publication. If you're starting out, I'd definitely recommend submitting to publications that are accepted in the boost program because in the vast sea of writers it's rather unlikely that you'll get magically discovered, alas!
